Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Excellent Doctor.
He explains your procedure in an understanding manner. He doesn't waste time. Dr. Tepedino has a wonderful bedside manner. He seems to really enjoy his job. My father and I have had many kidney sones removed without any problems.

DO NO USE
My husband was admitted to Harton Vanderbilt emergency room Thanksgiving morning due to urinary issues and was referred to Dr. Tepedino for follow up. I called the Monday after Thanksgiving to request an appointment and was told that I would receive a call back. It has been 7 days and have not heard from the office. How does the office even have patients as no one calls back to help with appointment so all patients must be on walk in basis. I would like to know how a doctor can be in service as long as this doctor has with such horrible business practices. I wanted to no stars but not able to do so I must say that everyone at the hospital were very professional and care was great but need to delete referrals to Dr. Tepedino office.

Dr. Tepedino performed surgery on me in October of 2018 in conjunction with a hysterectomy. I had pelvic organ prolapse that was contributing to incontinence. He along with a gynecologist performed the surgery and he promised me that my incontinence would be cured. The hysterectomy was a success, but I immediately had problems concerning Dr. Tepedino’s part of the surgery. I had a terrible infection, worse incontinence. He treated the infection, but refused to listen t to me concerning the incontinence. Just said it was OAB and kept prescribing more and more medication that didn’t help. He refused to listen to me. This continued for several months until I decided to consult another doctor. I was told that the surgery he performed did nothing to help my problem, so now I’m having to go through additional treatment. The medications were completely useless for me. I feel that he is very arrogant and unconcerned. Think twice before choosing him for your problem.

Dr. Tepedino was extremely rude and unprofessional and so were his staff. Facility is unclean and they are too cheap to buy lids for the urine specimen cups. Dr. tepedino had me drive to office and billed me for a visit just to get records sent from my previous doctor. He refused to give treatment stating he was unsure of my diagnosis but handed me pills like they were candy.
